This report explores attitudes towards gender roles and immigration in Croatia using data from 2017 European Value Study (EVS). Key variables analyzed include v72 and v80, which respectively measure perceptions on maternal employment effects and job priority during scarcity. We will incorporates demographic information such as age, sex, and education level for a comprehensive analyses.
Below tables are descriptive statistics for both continuous (v72, v80, age) and categorical variables (sex, education) in Croatia.

The two graphs presented below illustrates how the two variables of interest change with age in Croatia. The X-axis denotes age, while the Y-axis represents the average level of disagreement for v72 and v80.
The table below shows regression models for both attitudes towards Child suffers (v72) and Job to national (v80) in Croatia. The models include respondents’ age, age squared, sex and education.

Based on the model above, it appears that the sex variable is not statistically significant on attitudes towards child suffer (p>0.05). In the Job to national(v80) model, it appears that the sex variable is not statistically significant on attitudes national (p>0.05).
